Subject: not drinking

I am very worried about dehydration that's why I've been giving her liquids any way I can (including spoon feeding) which they told me to stop. They want me to stop the one bit of liquid she has all day because it is from a bottle, is similac advance for older babies, and I am holding it for her. They want her on 100% whole milk, no more formula, sitting up with a sippy cup and her holding it. I just don't know how I am going to get there - it means changing everything I do. I tried to do this for 2 days and she wouldnt drink any other way and her diapers dried out so I put her back on - she was sleepy all day and not herself - I had to make a judgement call. It's a huge problem I dont know how to fix!
